Chinese Super Grids
Date: 2019-03-05 12:41 pm (UTC)I also note that China being the first to build a hybrid UHV AC-DC grid is finding it difficult. Which I think is evidence in favour of my theory that China's rapid growth is mostly because it is operating inside the exiting technology frontier and that when it tries innovation it finds it just as difficult as everyone else.
But I look forward to them building and funding huge transmission lines through Asia and even more so to them then going bust.
